Club Career
Toy spent the bulk of his professional career in his adopted country, Portugal, first starting in amateur football. In 1999 he signed with first division giants S.L. Benfica, but played mainly with its reserves during his two-year spell.
Toy represented mainly S.C. Olhanense, first arriving at the Algarve club in 2004, then returning in the 2007 summer after a spell in Saudi Arabia. In 2008–09, in the second level, he contributed with six goals as Olhanense returned to the top flight after a 34-year absence.
In the following three first division seasons, Toy was relatively used by the Algarve club, mainly as a substitute.

Famous quotes containing the words club and/or career:
“The barriers of conventionality have been raised so high, and so strangely cemented by long existence, that the only hope of overthrowing them exists in the union of numbers linked together by common opinion and effort ... the united watchword of thousands would strike at the foundation of the false system and annihilate it.”
—Mme. Ellen Louise Demorest 1824–1898, U.S. women’s magazine editor and woman’s club movement pioneer. Demorest’s Illustrated Monthly and Mirror of Fashions, p. 203 (January 1870)
“They want to play at being mothers. So let them. Expressing tenderness in their own way will not prevent girls from enjoying a successful career in the future; indeed, the ability to nurture is as valuable a skill in the workplace as the ability to lead.”
—Anne Roiphe (20th century)
